Guys, Mud Princess LIVES!!!! Problem is, I'm not sure what finally was the fix. I was looking for loose connections and wiring issues with the CPS, unplugged.....tried to start, plugged back in and with full throttle held down....she began to spudder.......tried again a few seconds later and...

Well, installed new dist. cap, rotor and plugs. Still not starting. It does have spark, and after cranking for 30 seconds I smell gas..... This thing doesn't even begine to try and start..... will need to get a noid light to check injectors. Seems like I'm getting gas and spark. I did...

I imagine the tps could have gotten wet. If the tps was not working, would the spark plugs still fire? Thanks for all the input guys...every bit helps. I know, this was the first time I've ever cleaned it will not running....lesson learned : )

OK guys, Sounds like a place to start, I'll let you know what I find out this evening. thanks..

Hey Guys, Been a long time since I poted last.... Working on my '88 XJ with 4.0, Auto... when it was cold, I sprayed the engine with de-greaser, and washed it off 5 minutes later..... mostly concentrating on the block and valve cover area...but other areas got wet as well. It sat for 3-4 hours...

Hey Guys, The part number for the quick connect kits: Mopar 83504447, "Kit Oil Cooler Connector"

Well guys, The QC kits from the stealer are $18 a piece for two o-rings, spacer and plastic sleeve.....definetly not worth the money.... I was able to pull the parts out of the bolt in piece and measure the o-rings. I found to o-rings that matched perfectly, about 1/2" O.D. and about 1/16"...

Stewie, Great news! Thanks for the info. I have the female end pulled from the transmission and will go visit the parts store tomorrow. Thanks, I'll let everyone know what I find.

Yeah, so far I have all the connection to the radiator replace with hose and clamps... Do any of you know if you can just pull the lines out at the transmission and then unbolt the connections (they look like they bolt right in) and access the o-rings??? I'll check with dealer tomorrow..

Hey guys, Hitching on here.......I replaced all of my lines with hose and clamps and when I reinstalled my lines into the transmission with the QC, the lines started leaking at the QC. Is there just o-rings in the QC on the transmission end of the connection? These lines have probably never...

Me and the 3 kids will be there for the day Saturday...got to get the Mud Princess rolling again....been a while since we've been wheeling at all....

I found when my front U-joints went bad they actually made a sqeaking sound when I ratated them slowly

I have replaced them on my '88 XJ Dana 30 and.... The threaded bushing goes on the knuckle ....this is the mating end of the ball joint. You are talking about the threaded (castled) bushing. You need to unthread the old ones from the knuckle and screw these new ones in. Be aware, a certain...

I learned about NAXJA from Jeepweb where I spent many a post working on my Jeep....

Yeah, found spraying the oring area where the injector goes into the head with fuel injector/carb cleaner....they'll come out a little smoother
